Las Vegas: 365 days of winter at Minus5

It’s the season when triple digits are about to become a regular occurrence, yet a certain Las Vegas attraction, Minus5, is promising “365 more days of winter.”

That’s actually true given the temperature at both locations – the Monte Carlo and the Shoppes at Mandalay Place - is kept at a constant minus-5 degrees Celsius. That’s 23 degrees Fahrenheit, which ensures that the blocks of ice from which everything is carved – the walls, bars and elaborate sculptures – remain frozen.

Vegas visitors can beat the heat by enjoying a frosty cocktail or two at this unique experience. The fact that even the glasses are made of ice means that bartenders will probably politely chuckle at anyone who asks for a drink “on the rocks.”
